Peter, Pops and Mary

Recently, I wrote about two videos of Peter, Paul and Mary that I’d left myself a note for about a year ago, meaning to post them, but never getting around to.  I finally did with the first one, a feature about them on CBS Sunday Mornings, that I posted here.  And here’s the other.

Peter, Paul and Mary made a lot of specials for PBS.  But while this was on PBS, it’s not one of their specials.  Rather, it’s from 1987 when they were the guest performers on Evening at Pops, with John Williams conducting the Boston Pops.  It’s filled with wonderful music and is actually much more political than one might expect in this setting.   This isn’t the full TV show, but just their 35-minute segment.
